To be fair, I am not pissed off Djoker won. I'd just (for once) like to see Berdych not fold under the pressure. Some of the breaks Djoko got were from 4 UEs. That's just poor and it makes tennis so predictable :/.

The fact is, success in DC is largely determined by what country you come from or play for in the first place, which most players haven't had any control over.

Yes, out of about at least 50 players (current/past top10/15 players that have enough money) that can afford the egg, everyone except Djokovic is so morally clean and against using it. They must be saints. Stupid Eggovic would be out of the top20 if he didn't use the egg, no?

I dont see a single reason why would Federer beat him here. Yes he plays solid this tourny but thats it, its a mix of mugs and weak draw and mostly no one bothers to fight against him. About Murray yeah its possibile but it goes same as Olderer no fight cake draw.

lol how about 12 reasons (12-10) for federer vs nole on HARD. When federer plays his best hes still bettert han any version of djokovic. Novak is just a more consistent defender, like nadal.

He didn't fold in the 2nd set and served it out saving many BPs. But that was it.

I sure never claimed that none of the other players use the egg
